    It's all a matter of taste of course and I admire the workmanship, but personally don't like the way it looks.

    Personally I like the looks in general, but I'm not a fan of the power reserve indicator, as I don't think it fits in with the overall aesthetic.

    But hey, that's just me. Each to their own (I'm usually not a big fan of power reserve indicators anyway).

    Indeed, very restful on the eyes but if it's going for circa 8500 Euros that's way too rich for my blood! With that kind of money to burn I'd be after a Reverso.

    For 8500 eur, you can almost buy a 7 day power reserve IWC portuguese 5001...my dream watch.

    I don't much like the watch and it is very expensive but that movement is utterly brilliant :D

    Re: Mmmmmm, nice!

    Agree with the post above. Nice to see Eterna back with movements like this.

    Eterna are nowhere to be seen in the UK any more, they now have some big funding behind them with their new parent company, Porsche Design. Its not surprising that now movments are being developed with funding. Hopefully they will be back in the UK before too long, Im a bit of an Eterna fan

    ....and dont forget, if it was not for Eterna, who know where the the Swiss industry would be. They were the owners of ETA movements before they sold that part of their business to Swatch. ETA being an abbreviation for Eterna.

    Very nice, but for 8.5k I can think of a lot of watches I'd sooner buy :?
